There hasn’t been much research or studies on this topic. However, if you are really observing the boobs drooping v little, you have every right to blame your evening run. According to health and fitness experts, high-impact activities such as running lead to a lot of repetitive up-and-down and side-to-side breasts movement. These movements and jerks lead to sagging of boobs.
However, prior to abandoning shoes and signing up yoga, there are certain things you need to understand in this respect. Here’s what you need to know before abstaining from running completely:
Sag Happens to Breasts
First and foremost, sag occurs to all breasts. The collagen keeps breasts firm to stretch out. Certain factors such as time, gravity, pregnancy, weight gain or weight loss, and even smoking, tend to weaken collagen.
Genetics
Genetics also play a crucial role in boob sagging. Some women naturally have perkier boobs owing to stronger collagen.
Hence, it is impossible to know the amount of role running played by running to promote droop. This is because it is difficult to control factors that have to do with physiology and genetics.
So the final advice from health experts is to keep running as the benefits of running overshadow the possibility of a little extra breast sag. You can take certain precautions against sagging such as wearing the right kind of sports bra. Try investing in one with separate cups to restrict breast movement to keep them from swinging up and down and to the sides.
A sports bra with cups is the best option. Also make sure you get a lot of vitamin C. This helps body produce adequate collagen and enhances elasticity. Also include a lot of citrus fruits in yoru diet and leafy green veggies.
